Praying for a culture in which both abortions and miscarriages are equally grieved.
For your interest Megan dear.
Brad Parscale is saying he went nuts because he lost two children. People are guessing he meant from miscarriage.
😥😥😥😥
I grieve for the babies I lost everyday.
Maybe anecdotal, but the “shame” seems most prevalent among my Catholic friends. Some have said it’s God settling a score for earlier sins. Had a friend some 35ish years ago have a child born with severe birth defects. The child died within b.c. a few days. The Catholic paternal grandfather asked them what sin they did to disappoint God.
My daughter had a miscarriage before she carried her daughter to term. Another of her friends just had one.
It is nothing to be ashamed of. But, man, some people are idiots about what they say. I think that’s why a lot of women don’t talk about it.
The other “problem” these days is that women are taking pregnancy tests almost as soon as they are finished having sex (a slight exaggeration.). My wife knew my daughter was pregnant the second time after two days when she would have had per period.
And my daughter’s friend had just sent out for a “gender” hormone test—well before it would have been evident on an ultrasound. The results —Yay! Its a Boy!—arrived the day of the miscarriage. That was certainly not a pleasant day.
I guess my point is that just because it is possible to know and communicate something, doesn’t always mean its necessary.
Miscarrying sucks. I feel horrible for anyone going through that.
I have read Markle’s account of her miscarriage. I have had a few miscarriages and never experienced what she described. I think Markle is a phony. I cannot trust her to tell the truth. Did she really lose a baby in utero? Or has she just not been getting enough attention lately? What ever happened, I hope Harry has some support. He has been completely compromised by this woman. I have grieved my losses, but believe life is for the Iiving. And no, I don’t need to tell everybody about the upsets/problems I have. I don’t need to share my innermost thoughts/difficulties to be fulfilled as a person.
Being an Anglophile and wife of a British man, I hope that Harry gets the help he needs after Me-again is done with him. I can sympathize with the crushing homesickness that he must be experiencing, having been away from his homeland for nearly a year.
I had 3 miscarriages. I just recommend not getting excited about a pregnancy until you see a heartbeat on the ultrasound.
Once there’s a heartbeat, the chance of loss is small.
I think it’s good for people around to know if you are pregnant. You don’t feel great. Then you do need time to get over a miscarriage. Homormonally it’s a roller coaster.
:(
I am truly sorry.
This became a tear jerker of a thread!!
I am sorry for your losses.
I wonder how many women will have mentioned their miscarriage by the end of the thread.
I thought it was so rare!!
My mom had one right before me.
I guess I wouldn’t be here if she had the one prior.
But she was very sad, I’ve been told.
My friend’s wife had to CARRY the baby for a few weeks DEAD inside her!!!!
I forget the reason.
Good grief.
Prayers out to all who have lost a child.
Me no believe Meghan...
Agree. After my first miscarriage, I tried really hard to not acknowledge the baby early. It was hard, but I was in self-preservation mode. I had 4 total. 5 if you count losing one fraternal twin at 6 weeks and the other at 11 weeks. Maybe mine didn’t affect me as much, as my losses were all in the first trimester. Or maybe it’s because I’m old and we were brought up to keep our own counsel much closer, than today’s women seem to do. But I used my energy to focus on the little boy that I was able to have.....my first pregnancy.

Couldn’t agree more. In this world of instant gratification and instant information, people really just need to slow down. I long for the days when communication wasn’t instantaneous.
Thank you. My daughter recently had a miscarriage. I probably didn’t handle it as well as I could have. She is doing better now. Two reactions to note: her mother-in-law told her that she will be very likely to miscarry again (which doesn’t seem to be statistically accurate, and her doctor assured her was not particularly likely); and, a very liberal relative sent me cute baby pictures of my niece’s newborn, a couple days after I shared the miscarriage info. I expect she was trying to piss me off.
What an @ss.
I have two precious children I haven’t met yet. Another reason my homecoming to heaven will be joyous- I will finally meet the rest of my family
